Yea, tell that to my mom. She was layed off for 3 months because bush has had piss poor funding for education.
Trust me dude it's not the president's fault. THe school systems are corrupt.
Take Nevada for example...they landscape the schools here with 40k palm trees, and then want to raise taxes for "education", while the administrators all get raises except for the real workers. The teachers
edit: slushbox stay in school.
bare in mind as well, depending upon whether you're a freshman in highschool or a freshman in college your teacher has about a 99% chance of being a liberal (democrat) and of course they're going to side with the person in their party, they want to keep the teachers union as strong as ever. Also most of what you hear on tv and the news is left wing/liberal/democratic things as well considering these sources are controlled and run by democrats along with 99% of the celebrities that come on are democrat as well(Like those completely idiotic Baldwin brothers that have their heads up each others asses). So it may seem as if the whole world is pointing the finger at Bush and sees how he messes everything up, but thats only a liberal point of view. Turn on Fox News and you'll start to see the Republican point of view and they'll tell you how Kerry is a POS and his economic plans arent going to work. All of that stuff has a slant or a spin to it.
Best bet of getting non corrupt news is on a public access channel or radio station, if you really want to hear the facts.
Fact is, past two democrats that ran for office didnt really have plans well set out before they got into office atleast not plans that they spoke publically about and actually thought would become inacted. Gore was an absolute moron, and now Kerry is just saying what everyone wants to hear.
Bush has messed up a bunch, just like everyone else. I'll give him another 4 years and hope that the next person in line other than Nader doesnt suck quite so bad
i was voting for kerry before i even started college so my prof. had no real influence. and i would never base my vote on what any celeb said. their celebs. not politicians, their opinion is as good as yours in my mind. their just another person. plus its hard to listen to a baldwin when you have seen bio-dome as much as i have. and i agree gore was a moron. im not a (d) or an ®. i vote to whoever i think is best. my parents are pissed at me too but im very opinionated, especially at 18. i know i still have alot to learn but i think i would rather try the next 4 with kerry rather than bush.

Am I better off now than I was four years ago? HELL NO.
Bush is getting my boot. If Kerry doesn't do the job, he gets it too.
never even heard of it
To address the issue of trickle down economics:
In theory it is supposed to work. Giving wealthy people tax cuts is supposed to promote investment and spending amongst them which would ultimatly lead to the creation of new businesses as well as the expansion of others. Unfortunatly history shows us that it doesnt work that way. Remember Reaganomics? Sure, a sector of America did well (business owners and the wealthy) but at what cost? All kinds of programs were cut, and his deregulation of savings and loans cost us as a nation billions to bail them out of their failure. I wont even get into his social policy mistakes (though a significant failure id like to point out is no longer holding media culpable for inaccuracies in its reporting, which is effectivly what fox news subsists on).
I think we see the real effect of reaganomics though in bush's term when we get to see papa bush make a liar our of himself ("Read my lips, no new taxes) because of trickle down economics' failure.
Fast forwarding to present the failure again is that the tax breaks businesses are getting are not being spent in America. They are being used as venture capital to start businesses in booming Asian markets. Coupled with the devestating effects of outsourcing you can see where an economic policy like that will lead us (money not being spent in the US will make the economy stagnant, and outsourcing our jobs prevents us from having money to spend).

In response to the flak received by this, Bush said the following:
"This investigation is important and it's ongoing, and a political candidate who jumps to conclusions without knowing the facts is not a person you want as your commander in chief."
For once, we agree. Start packing your bags.

"News of missing explosives in Iraq -- first reported in April 2003 -- was being resurrected for a 60 MINUTES election eve broadcast designed to knock the Bush administration into a crisis mode..."
It turns out that the 380 tons of explosives in Iraq were already missing PRIOR to our troops arriving last year, but CBS didn't want you to know that! However, John Kerry has just released an ad blaming the Bush administration for losing the explosives. (Venture into his site if you want to waste your time with his lies. The ad is called "Obligation.")
So how is it Bush's fault that the explosives were taken before the war started? Is Kerry suggesting that we should have gone to war even SOONER?

The same way the terror-o-meter was raised during the DNC over 4 year old data. Bush didn't want you to know that! All the admin. wanted to do was divert attention away and really ham it up saying how their administration stopped this attack before it happened. Yeah... bullshit.
Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.
